  "Cluster Headaches" (mcmac56)

MDJunction to me

jaguar62"Here's a success story for you ,, there was this poor guy who all he ever did was work his butt off day in and day out, and would settle for no less than perfection which caused him to somewhat be an outcast among his peers.

But then people around him started to notice that failure wasn't an option and this guy could really get things moving in the direction they were supposed to go so when they had an issue they would hesitantly ask for assistance at first.

But as time went on more and more people started getting referred to him. Before you knew it he was recognized and he had a top executive job,Escalation Supervisor of the whole Eastern Coast of United States for a communications company was staying busy like he loved to do and helping people along the way and life was excellent, good salary and benefits ,loved going to work "everyday".

Then one day (it was a period of time ) it was over ...seemed like it disappeared in an instance (after being diagnosed with Parkinsons Disease at the age of 49) and it stayed that way forever it seemed and life was slowly deteriorating around him ..depressed , no motivation, no job, health issues getting progressively worse much faster than just Parkinson and then being told it has possibilities of being MSA (Multiple Systems Atrophy) well seeing as i wasn't working i started checking out sites online and just so happened on MDJunction and the Parkinsons Support Group and absolutely loved the forums and feed back from the GLs and found out it wasn't just poor me at all, it was lots of wonderful people who shared the same symptoms that i was and still am going thru every day but in a whole lot better more positive frame of mind . So after about a year of posting and reading the forums daily and meeting so many good people I knew i wanted to give back some of this well needed love that i had received , So I applied for a Group Leader Position and ...

I had a "new job" and its helping people as well as getting the necessary help I now require and I can do it 24 hrs a day if i want to ..HOW GOOD IS THAT .

THATS MY SUCCESS STORY/Testomonial
OH Yeah!I almost forgot the best part is the wonderful fellowship around the workplace,,

MDjunction has opened my eyes and offered me a new beginning to what was looking like a very dark end. thanks MDJ (and yes i do know where I would be without you.)

starbright you've listened but you've never heard, there's so much said in empty words. i hate that i cycle so quickly, i can barely keep up with myself and it's taking its toll on me physically and mentally, i'm having a hard time finding the right combo of meds - i've even thought about self medicating again but i know deep down that thats not the way to go. i just feel helpless, like i've exhausted all means of help, it's just one extreme to the next and it's hard, i just want it all to stop. i'm scared.... ...Read More


alone and desperate

Mar 04 2012

just lately things have been going down hill, well to be more exact they've been all over the place, im cycling more rapidly then normal and my voices are pestering me more then usual, im stressedout from studying and exhausted because everything i do is usually a race or such a slow pace i cant keep up with either.

but my depression is so low, i've been thinking about my existance alot and whether or not i really do exist because alot of the time i feel so numb and so dead inside that it doesn't feel normal.

last year i went mute for 5 weeks, i cant remember how itt started but its starting to get harder to talk now and i know i cant allow that to happen as they will move me out. by that i mean at the unit im staying are some general 6 bed flats which share everything other then their rooms but i have just been moved into one of the independent flats which is self catering and i love it, but its making it hard to be honest and open about everything because im afraid they'll pull me out and im woried about disapointing them all.

i feel so scared and teary all the time and things never look right. sometimes i sit there with bad movies playing out in my mind and at other times i sit there staring into space and nothing comes into my mind.

everybody hates me and i know that i am unwanted and im all alone, psychology is bringing up all the stuff that is still so raw in my mind mostly about my childhood and how i missed out on so much.

i feel so neglected and i dont know how to make all the Sh*t stop happening in my brain. i thought i had friends but even they keep there distance or use me for there own purposes, everyone usually does in the end, i dont know why i bother. i dont know why im still here. i dont know anything anymore.
